  RE: Exported AVI file is 5x the size
  @srpohl I assume you are exporting your files as "Uncompressed AVI"? If so, since your file imported from your camera will almost certainly be in DV-AVI format, itself a "compressed" format, that size difference is very much what one might expect. I

  RE: Setting the start point for a stopwatch / time code
  Hi, I agree, more advanced timers from Magix for MEP/VPX would be a good addition and should be proposed to them. BluffTitler has timers that are fully modifiable. I highly recommend BT for this and it can be extremely useful for many other

  @browj2 Hi Richard, For me, in MEP2021 20.0.1.65, Takes work, sound works, effects work on the imported Takes. It would be good to have a second user validate this. A Take is just a Scene that you send to a folder - and it only contains

  @DBoydNL Hi . . . . I am having trouble getting a huge 3 hour course I taught and had HD Video "taped" to reduce to a decent size video that still maintains clarity and flow. MPG, MPG4 and AVI all export at around 25 GB at high resolution. Too big .

  Many, many things wrong
  I have Video Deluxe Plus 2021, but there is no category for that here. I have had to conclude that this is just typical of the way Magix works. Since my VD is currently exporting a large file, I cannot get to Help / About to see what version it is.

  RE: No video after upgrade to 2021 Movie Edit Premium Plus
  Thanks John. That did not work for me. On the image all MOV and MP4 do not preview in the Import window or in the Timeline and they do not display when I play my project. AVIs work so it seems like a codec issue. Not sure why 2020 worked perfectly

  RE: VHS to digital via Firewire problem; MEP 2015
  @Jim_H  I would probably be better off with the original DV-AVI capture, both as an archive, and as a platform for cleaning up the files for transfer to DVD? I agree with that. 👍

  All, No, you can not improve picture quality purely by increasing the amount of data as you have already found, but, if you render your edited DV-AVI to a lossless codec like Lagarith or Huffyuv for archiving, the quality will not get worse. It will
